RIO CHAGRES PANAMA

Welcome to the Rio Chagres, a vital artery flowing through the heart of Panama and a key component of the region's rich ecosystem. This majestic river is not just a source of natural beauty but also a cornerstone of Panamanian history and culture.

As you prepare to embark on your journey, you'll find yourself in the embrace of the Chagres National Park, a protected area that offers a sanctuary for diverse wildlife and a range of flora that thrives in this lush environment.

Your adventure begins the moment you land at Tocumen airport, where our friendly team will be waiting to welcome you to Panama. A scenic drive takes you to the Chagres River Lodge, your serene retreat nestled along the banks of the iconic river.

If time allows, take a gentle walk in the nearby National Park Agua Clara, where the sounds and sights of the jungle introduce you to the wonders of the Chagres river.

DAY 2 - MONKEY ISLAND AND PIPELINE ROAD

Greet the day with a delicious breakfast featuring local flavors and fresh fruits. Then, embark on a thrilling boat journey to Monkey Island, navigating the waters of the mighty Panama Canal.
